- The cost of owning and running a 2018 Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 across the course of 6 months. In this video I discuss the Running Costs of my Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8. I talk about F Type Insurance costs, amongst F-Type MPG and fuel economy and much more
The 2018 Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 is a stunning sports car that boasts exceptional performance and stylish design. However, owning and operating this beauty involves a considerable amount of costs that need to be considered before making the investment. In this video, we will examine the cost of owning and running a 2018 Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 over a period of 6 months.
First and foremost, the cost of purchasing a 2018 Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 can vary significantly depending on various factors such as its condition, mileage and location. On average, you can expect to pay anywhere between £40,000 to £70,000 for a used model, while a brand new one will set you back closer to £120,000.
One of the largest expenses of owning a sports car like the 2018 Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 is insurance. The cost of insurance can vary based on driving history, age and location, but you could expect to pay anywhere between £1,200 to £2,500 per year for insurance.
Another considerable cost to factor in is fuel. With a 5.0L V8 engine, the 2018 Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 is not the most fuel-efficient car, and you should expect to spend around £200 to £450 per month on fuel, depending on your mileage
Regular maintenance and repairs are also critical in keeping your car running smoothly, and you should expect to pay for repairs and services such as oil changes, tire rotations and brake pad replacements.
Additionally, there are also the costs of road tax which can add up to a few hundred pounds per year.
In conclusion, owning and running a 2018 Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 can be a pricey affair, but if you're a car enthusiast and appreciate luxury, style and performance, it can be a valuable investment. With proper maintenance and care, your 2018 Jaguar F Type R 5.0 V8 can provide you with many years of driving enjoyment.

I purchased a new 2023 F Type 450 for MSRP (US dollars $78,000).
It came with 5 year warranty that covers repairs and maintenance so basically no cost to me other than normal wear and tear on tires, brakes etc. Kept my price reasonable and affordable while still getting the awesome looks and performance. Stayed away from extras like dual climate control (cabin is small so standard control works just fine), auto lift gate (easy to open manually), standard seats (very comfortable), and standard wheels that look great. Did get glass roof, upgraded paint and 12 way electric seats and a few other upgrades. Point being, I now have a beautiful F Type at a very reasonable cost with basically no repair/maintenance costs for 5 years. Thanks
That’s sick 🔥enjoy ur car man 😊
Great choice. You'll get so many compliments on her it will blow your mind. I've even had people want to take selfies in front of mine.
Great video. Well thought out and well presented! Enjoy the car
Thanks for the feedback Thomas, and thanks for watching! 🙌🏻
Great insight. You must be close to me. I'm just outside Barkham. Bought my F-type P380 AWD last month. And......Absolutely love it. Just ordered the indicators after watching your video. I have metallic White paintwork with the black 20" alloys, black skirts etc, so the black strip on indicators will look awesome.
Great videos. I am planning to sell my '66 right hand drive E-Type and I plan to grab a 5.0 F-Type. Thanks for all the work
Exactly what I was looking for
Very helpful as one of these is on my radar. I think the message here is that all used cars will have some additional costs, it's def better than my experiences with Porsche Caymans!
Thanks for dropping by, Lee! Hopefully a lot of the costs are only circumstantial to me, and others will have better luck. Good luck with your shopping and I hope you get the car you want!
Thanks for the facts and figures. I break running my 5.0L XK down into weekly costs so it doesn't seem so bad ;-)
Things like insurance and repairs can vary according to so many factors. In my mid 60's with three years NCD the insurance comes in a £278pa with everything like breakdown recovery and protected NCD included. After three years of ownership I've only had to replace the tyres @£220 and a couple of niggles like the LH back box rubber mount and an anti roll bar drop link - easy DIY jobs. Only have 34k mileage, but it's 12 years old, so due a 120k service (inc. renew drive belts) @£512 from my local JLR dealer. Still, that's less than a tenner a week until next year's service 🙂
Thanks for commenting Steve. The XK is a gorgeous car and it sounds as if you’ve been very lucky with yours! Happy driving!
Great video, sometimes you have to put logic aside and just indulge yourself!
I have always been tempted by the F Type but couldn't quite do it.Way back in the day (2016) I did indulge myself for a miserly £330 had a 4 day rental with a V6R convertible ,caned it totally and walked away financially unscathed.
All fun and no commitment, but I didn't get the chance to look at it every day, admire those fantastic looks, it is still one of the best looking cars around today.
I now have a new Z4, which looks pretty good,and the tech is way beyond the F Type, but still hanker after the Jag.
Thanks for watching and commenting! That's a good way to seperate yourself from the financial risk. The Z4 is an epic car, and they're both special in their own ways. Happy driving!
Cool vid thanks
considering buying a 2017 ftype S. been looking at many of these reviews *you did a good job.... you don't come off like your trying to sell us something, or dying to be on camera. because of that I stayed tuned in and learned from your vids. Thank you!
Thats a great bit of feedback, thanks for taking the time to comment. I hope you’re successful in your hunt for a car!
Hope you got your S! I just got a "high mileage", (51k), '17 Glacier White British Design Edition S for myself as a "good boy" X-mas present. Found it at a local Toyota dealer for a price I could not pass up, ($38k + tax), and it has a history of being serviced by the local Jag dealer.
I absolutely love it to bits. For a sports car it's really comfy, eats up road bumps without rattling your teeth, plenty quick for me, (especially on the mountain roads near where I live). Side note: My Jag dealer loaned me a rear wheel drive R for a weekend and that thing was scary on my local no guardrail hairpins!
Could not recommend one more, go get one!
@@janthomassen9577 That is a great deal!
This was a great idea that for doing it... I've had my 2015 F-Type R for a year now so I think I'll also do a review.
Thanks Stefan! How have you gotten on with yours?
@@MrGB_UK I'll start by saying I'm keeping this car forever. The main problem with the car was the cooling system. If you look at yours you will find what they call the cross over pipe. The original pipe is a plastic ABS fused together plugged into a lower pipe below you really can't unless you remove it. As you would suspect this part splits apart over time and fails. The replacement part is one solid part with no seam but the lower part must be replaced as it is not a replacement to the old one. This requires the supercharger to be removed to get this done. This all happened around 60K miles one the car. I only had the car for a week when this happened as the leak was very slight at the time. So I chose to have the my local do the repair but at the same time I also had the water pump, thermostat and all belts replaced at the same time after talking with the guys in the parts department. I asked what parts on the 5.0 are on recall or go out the most. I also had to replace the expansion tank and the return line that goes to it. Also then they removed the supercharger the tech broke the vacuum line running back to the fuel tank but just the short plastic part the rest of it is aluminum but comes as one part the length of the car. In all this cost about $4500 but was worth it as the car has been perfect otherwise. I just did my first oil change 2 weeks ago and that was also very easy but different as there is no dip stick. The 5.0 takes 6.5 liters but I only got 5 liters out so just know you can go as that low and never get a warning light like most cars. Never over fill or you will destroy the motor.
Superb video! Wondered how you replaced the cup holders and where you got it from for 25 pounds!! The metal on my right one is scratched badly!
Thanks for the feedback Matthew!
I got the cup holders from SNG Barrett. They literally pull out and push back in. A simple 10 second DIY job. Mine were scratched badly - previous owner keeping keys or change in there I think
Thanks for that I was thinking of buying one for the wife I’m not so sure now👍🏻
I have owned a 2014 rwd ( I really don’t see why you would want an all wheel drive unless you daily through the winter) for just over 3 year’s (I would not sell this car for love nor money it is simply the most fun you can have with four wheels for a very small amount of money) I do own my own garage so maintenance and insurance are almost nonexistent. I can say that the cat problem with f type r’s is because people feather the throttle to make it pop and bang, this does cause damage to the cats, but that’s obvious if you know what is making all that noise. Absolutely brilliant car, but if you can’t do your own maintenance it will be expensive!
Thinking of the infotainment upgrade for Apple play on my 2015 RmF-Type R, every thing works properly?
Nice video! How does this compare to the base model V6?
I'm not too sure of the base model v6 MPG, however from what I see on the FB groups, the v8 usually gets better MPG. Perhaps something to do with a larger engine having to work/rev less to get to speeds?
How much roughly this car cost? What year was the car registered?
I have 2014 f type v8s, asked the dealer to retro fit the 11inch screen, and they said the car cant get fitted. any clues? thx
Jaaaaaag *live mine F-Type 🙏🏻
Just spotted this car on Autotrader… the copper flashes gave it away 👍
Sharp spot! It’s not actually mine, but a similar one. The one one auto trader is the pre-facelift that someone has similar vinyl accents on
Very useful review, thanks. Out of interest, what's your average mpg? I have a V6S and around 25/26mpg.
Pretty good to be truthful. Sat on cruise control at 65 on the motorway, an average of about 38-42mpg. On some country roads having moderate fun, circa 20mpg. On country roads pushing hard, about 10-12 mpg
I have the V8R and I can get 20/25mpg 80 mph driving in normal mode but when I'm dynamic mode and I'm driving like a hooligan it gets 8/15mpg LOL ;-)
I have the FPace V6S petrol which I bought in 2017 and just don't want to sell as it sounds so good and still looks one of the best cars on the road. Max I get is 28-30 mpg on motorways and far less around town.
0:03 my man thought he was in a manual 😂
😆 The car was in manual mode, and I was shifting using the slap stick. But yes, it looks funny now you’ve pointed it out 🤣
@@MrGB_UK 😂it looked like you were about to shift the old type of manual stick after a high rev
Depending on how you drive it the petrol cost
Doesn't sound too bad really! It's not the kind of car aimed at someone with 1 years no-claims bonus and overall I think you have done well and minimised the costs.
You’re on the mark there! It’s always good to do what you can where you can, but to also recognise when it’s time to not penny pinch and do things properly 😆Thanks for watching and commenting!
@mrGB I'm looking at buying an active exhaust backbox. Not really sure how to DM on UA-cam, but do you think I can ask your advice on the one I'm looking at and also how you installed it? Would be great to get your help on how to as well. Can drive to you if that's not a problem? Thank you.
Hey! Head over to @MrGB_UK on Instagram and message me on there if you want to chat! I’m more than happy to help
@@MrGB_UK Do you have email by any chance? Thank you!
Interesting, I have a 2018 v6 base model and in the past 6 months it has cost me £3300 to run. That includes 2 rear tyres, 1 front tyre (all pirelli p zeros, approx £680 for all 3), a new oxygen sensor (£365 at the main dealer) and £192 in the main dealer ripping me off and £110 on an OBD device. I live in Belfast (petrol prices a bit cheaper here) and typically drive 800 miles/month using it as a daily driver.
(michelin pilot sport 4s) the much better tyre.
I thought the oxygen sensor had extended warranty in all cars, like 10 years, maybe you should check and get a refund
Are you sure the Jag has 195 tires fitted?
Do you have a link to the stereo and dash cam you had installed?
The dash cam is a Thinkware Q800 pro. The stereo is a genuine Jaguar screen from a later model. I hope that helps and thanks for watching and commenting
I owned one but sold it for a 2022 Lexus LC 500 with performance pack , and just love it because I was tired of being in the shop once a month ! The quality just isn’t there in my opinion . My Lexus will last 10 years easy and oil changes are inexpensive as well . Just sharing
The Lc is pretty, but nit as pretty as the f type, and the hp is shameful for a 100k car.
I’m looking for this color with a tan or red interior is there only black for this one ?
They certainly do a red or tan interior. I love the look of the tan, but felt the black was more practical
@@MrGB_UK gotcha. I’ve only found black so far with this color
Hey I have a small question, is it comfortable to drive big distances? Like a car for trips of 1k miles etc?
Hi, thanks for watching and commenting. It sure is. We did a 2.5k mile road trip earlier in the year (over 10 days) and it was faultless. Plenty enough luggage space, and more than comfortable for two adults
Happy driving!
@@MrGB_UK wow, sounds awesome. Thank you for the reply! Can't wait for mine.
And let's not forget the way these cars depreciate. Might make your 6 months running costs look small. Have a look at a new R circa £110k list, can't give them away hence discounted heavily - I know someone who got £30k off a new one out of the showroom (2016) even in today's inflated used car market. circa 18 months old and they go for c. £72k even in a JLR dealership. Sad I know compared to what you get and for some odd reason Porsches don't depreciate in the same way being the target market.
Thanks for commenting Keith. The depreciation in years 1-3 on these cars is bonkers. It's one of the main reasons I didn't buy new. That and the exhaust tone on the older cars. Perhaps the Porsches hold value better as the high end (GTs and GT-RSs) models have waiting lists and limited runs?
The Service costs AND PARTS represent a 100k purchase price..REGARDLESS of what you paid..
I paid £640 for 12 months with 0 NCB (this is the first car on my name) with Admiral 🙂
That’s a great price! I also have my wife insured on the car which I feel pushed it up a bit. I did forget to mention that in the video
Thanks for watching!
when i bought my f type, a '67 2.0L i4 at age 20 insurance was 1200 with blackbox. road tax was 520 for the year. I daily the f type paying around 50 quid a week on fuel (should go down with the whole crisis hopefully) had it nearly 4 months and only had one tire replacement pirelli p zero 255/30 for 175 quid. was considering a V6 but im way too young and dont earn enough to run one lol. obvs a V8 way out of my league. but the price youre paying for ownership for that noise. id 100% do the samething.
Thanks for the comment! When you look at the ‘essential’ costs, it’s probably not too dissimilar. The repairs have been a bit hefty, and I’ve done some ‘extra’ stuff. I take it you’re UK based?
@@MrGB_UK Yes, I live in Scotland
"'67 2.0L"....?
@@brazen9572 we did the NC500 in ours earlier in the year. What a corner of the world! Would thoroughly recommend
@@bigmacdaddy1234 2017 and 2018 cars = 67
195/30/20 tyre size doesn't seem right to me. I had Porsches for 11 years and the tyres size was 225-245 front/rear. I now have an Abarth 124 Spider and they are 205/40/17. So 195 seems way too narrow for this car.
They will be 295 tyres same as the XJR.
I came to the comments looking for this comment lol, I was just dumbstruck for a moment, thinking 🤔 195 width on an F type? Hmmm, maybe on a 2.0 L model but even then seems slim, my 2010 Peugeot 207 estate sits on 195s lol
Very nice.I have the same problem with tailgaters in my Guards red 997s.I now tend to drive my lovely old s type all the time.Shame really.I think its due to the looming squeeze and because to many Woke T***s inhabit the country.....Cheers John
I'm paying £340 on insurance for 1 year for me and mrs on my FPace V6S petrol.
Stocks and shares is extremely sensible investment whilst the F Type V8 is an extreme acquisition of liability but each to their own so I will not take a swipe on anyone indulging in instant gratification. Nice car but I’d rather keep the ISA 🤓
You are absolutely correct :)
I do both, but also like to enjoy what I can. As you say, each to their own & I accept the car is not a sound financial investment 😆
Different people have different priorities in life. It's nothing to do with instant gratification, it's called living life for today, when tomorrow you could be dead or be given a terminal diagnosis. You're a sad pathetic boring prick. There's no point being the richest prick in the cemetery.
May I know the MPG? Thanks
Hi - On the motorway, around 38-42 mpg. When driving on country roads, anywhere between 8 and 22 mpg, depending how hard you push
@@MrGB_UK So it gets better mileage than Toyota Prius on the motorway? Interesting....
@@bigmacdaddy1234 I don't know the MPG of a Prius, but if it fits in with the figures above, then I guess so. To avoid confusion; that figure of 38-42mpg is sat at 65mph with the cruise control on. If you push up to 70+mph, then you can easily drop to low 30's. Thanks for commenting!
@@MrGB_UK Just seems strange that a Jaguar V8 gets better mpg than a hybrid economy car. Your numbers are also double than what Jaguar claims to get. Amazing!
I have a 2016 R and around town I get about 15-16 I believe, maybe a bit less. I don’t drive it much and never truly calculated it since it’s a toy in my mind.
You probably paid a lot less than the cost of a new one so I think it's a reasonable maintenance cost for a 17 plate F Type. Can't take the money with us if we suddenly checked out tomorrow.
This thing can be remapped to 600+bhp. You thought about that?
Why cost things over 6 months? Most people will drive there car all year round.
As far as fuel goes all we want to know is the Mpg, round town and on a run.
I've had the car 6 months, so this was the information that I have to hand. I'd like to do a 12-month review when I get there, also. I'll upload some real-world MPG footage soon, so keep your eyes peeled for that. Thanks for the comment :)
My 2017 R is $268 usd per MONTH. Tags (tax) ? $20 lol
5k miles in 1 year is absolutely amazing. We will have put over 17k in 1 year on ours.
That's a lot of driving! Exactly what these cars are meant for - a truly awesome experience
@@MrGB_UK I’m of the mind set that say “Buying a nice car and not driving it is no different than getting a wife and not sleeping with her so it’s in good shape for the next guy”
You got the car to enjoy it so ENJOY IT 👍🏼
